No they would not. We just have too many guards, Jones got 0 minutes regardless.
Watch how many games AD can bang at the 5 for majority of the game. |

Non-factor is a bit harsh. He played pretty well overall but wasn’t dominant. Same with LeBron. Same with Westbrook. The concern is all 3 guys were pretty good and we got blown out. The team can’t support those guys so we aren’t going to be very competitive. _________________ 14-5-3-12 |

I think GS is our worst matchup.

He played ok.
They were hacking him like crazy with nothing called.
Second half we stopped giving him the ball. |
We can disagree. He had 6rbs and after a solid start was gone. His stat sheet more than anyones should thank a qt+ of garbage time.
Remember the interview he gave about playing GSW. He wasn’t that. _________________ Kobe.

Crazy to think a team with Magic Johnson fresh off his rookie year championship and my birth year (1982) would follow up that season by shooting so poorly from downtown.
At least they still found ways to win ball games in 83’.
F these “moral victories”. No such thing.
Gotta get better and win some games this time around |

Their young guys steps up too. I think Curry ends up with like 6-7 rings. |
Continuity comes with 400-500mil payrolls, how can we compete with that? |

You can’t just look at final stat numbers on players it’s when they score their points that also matters Braun started off very cold Westbrook still making boneheaded mistakes consecutively A.D. can’t hit an outside shot

Ya boys Bev/Walker/Reeves combined:
4-15 shooting overall with 1-10 from three.
Overlooked Nunn:
5-9 shooting overall with 3-6 from three.
Out played them in preseason and outplayed them combined this game…who would have predicted that…it’s not like we could have seen that coming. Keep starting them over Nunn, it’s the new Laker way

Wait you see the clippers, we probably have better chance against GS because they can go cold any game |

We may not have their bankroll but we've also had front office executives that have made a litany of poor decisions and poor asset management. We could certainly be doing better than some of the nonsense rosters and roster decisions we've had. |

It looked like AD might have suffered an injury. He was a different player in start of the first half until he took a fall in that break away and-1. After that he lost a ton of athleticism. Hopefully he heals up before Thursday. |

AD started well. That’s all. If I think about the game I just watched he had zero impact.
Same with reaves. _________________ Kobe.

Pretty much this. 3-15 might be the smallest and least skilled Lakers roster ever. |

I am very concerned about Patrick Beverley he might give energy and he might be a defensive past but he hast to be able to score of the ball |

Well he was playing hurt. So I hope he didn't do anything to tweak the back more. |

They really should tell Westbrook that he’s not going to be a starter on this team |

He could have grabbed more than 6 rebounds, but 27 points, 4 steals, 2 blocks is zero impact? |

Lebron, AD, and Russ will say it’s only their 22nd or 23rd game where all three of them are playing together.
It’s been pitiful basketball watching these three try to figure it out.
What’s Rob and Jeannie’s amount of games they can tolerate this season with this experiment??
5...10......35

Not sure, but I think the 2020 roster would have gave them a run for their money. |
